    Filet & Lobster
    Ryan G.

    FANTASTIC experience today at The Fort! Everything was top notch. From our checking experience, to our greeting, our server, and everyone who helped bus our dirties, everyone and everything was awesome. They even acted on my fiancé's birthday note I put on the reservation. Our server Chris made our night with excellent suggestions and top notch service. We can't wait to return!

    Dirty Oysters

    My boyfriend and I went to The Fort last night for a light dinner, and it was extraordinary. We had dirty oysters, raw oysters on the half shell, and the filet fappetizer. Everything tasted beyond what a meager attempt at a description of "fantastic" could do. I don't really eat much steak because I'm extremely particular, but I think I have talked about this meal for almost 24 hours straight. This is a must on your list of places to try in Saint Lucie County!

    Lobster Macc and cheese

    Ambience was phenomenal, nice and quiet! Sat at the bar and enjoyed the most fabulous margaritas and lobster Mac and cheese while Walter (manager) graced me with phenomenal conversation. Can not wait to visit again.

    Delmonico Steak

    The whole experience was good, no complaints. The vibe is that of a trendy steakhouse, not too dark, with bright bold murals and pictures. We weren't super hungry so no appetizer or dessert. My wife got the 16oz Delmonico, medium rare. It came out cooked perfectly with great flavor and just the right amount of marbling. I ordered the Pan Seared Salmon with a Boursin Cheese topping over a Quinoa blend. It was cooked well, but I saw no sign of it being Pan Seared, more like roasted. And it lacked flavor and was maybe a 5oz piece, which for $38.00, even in this crazy inflationary market is pricey. All good! We try and always support the local restaurants in our city and wish them continued success.

    Food was very good and cooked to requested temperature. Service was attentive and friendly. Even the manager stopped by our table to ask how everything was and chat a few minutes. He was very personable. Very dimly lit to the point I had to use the flashlight on my phone to read the menu and a bit chilly if seated under an a/c vent. Overall we enjoyed our visit and meal.

    Orchids, succulents, and jasmine vines everywhere - definitely makes us both happy.

    The Fort is definitely a place worth trying, though you'll want to budget accordingly to truly indulge in all the tasty options across the menus. We've been before, and enjoyed it, but reserved a courtyard table this time around to celebrate our 27-year anniversary. John was our server, and about 40 minutes into our time in the quaint, lush, gently-lit courtyard the only other patrons finished and left. This allowed us the majority of our time with the entire area to ourselves - we couldn't have planned it better. As a native to the area, and 8th generation Floridian, there's a lot of history in this building on the walls and in the halls. Artwork from one of the sons of of Bud Adams featuring the Patriarch, and gorgeous shots of his famous Braford cattle and his cowboys working hard to tend to them and the beautiful land they've held dearly for years. This former bank turned Retail restaurant has done a great job of keeping the bones of the building while transforming the space into what seems like a high-end hideaway in the middle of downtown Fort Pierce. As a little girl coming down here to being here now is a world apart, and I'm so glad to see my hometown thriving. Everything we had was impeccably seasoned, cooked, and the service was top-notch. The hostess, and other staff were warm, friendly, courteous and helpful. We split the Tomahawk Steak and it was perfectly a Medium Rare towards Medium as requested. They offered to pre-slice it, and the presentation along with the lobster tail and drawn butter was well-done. The grilled calamari steak was an appetizer special, and was thinly sliced, and seasoned with a light lemon sauce and was so tender and delicious, it was accompanied with a geek salad including olives and grilled artichoke hearts which was a good balance to the squid. The wedge salad was so tasty with a tangy (not sweet) dressing and fresh bacon and tomatoes; I requested some red onion which they had available pickled which was a surprisingly tasty twist that I'll have to try again. The French Onion soup must be made with the richest, freshest beef broth, and the cheese was melted and gooey and the perfect complement to the deep flavor of the caramelized onion broth and the softened bread floating in every bite. We shared the baked potato which was huge and drenched in a cheesy sauce with bacon and was full of flavor. The steak was truly delectable - my husband enjoyed the bits left on the bone and kindly saved the rest for our dog for later. The outside was flavorfully seasoned, with crispy fat, and such a glistening sheen throughout each slice you knew it was beautifully marbled without seeing it before it was cooked. We didn't save room for dessert, but the offerings all gave us pause - maybe next time. With cocktails, and a 30% tip it was about $350, but the experience we had felt like we were somewhere afar dining in a cozy nook with light music, and a water fall in the background, and was truly priceless. The staff were perfectly attentive and engaging, and otherwise offered us privacy to enjoy reminiscing on our years thus far, and reflecting on all which lies ahead. We highly recommend and will be back once we save up for another splurge.

    Does this place have outdoor seating?

    There are a few al fresco tables in the front of the restaurant as well as a beautiful patio space in the back of the restaurant with a number of tables. (The back patio would be perfect for a large party or private event on a nice evening!)

For starters, the calamari was perfectly crispy and fresh. Sauce ok, but the calamari was good all by itself. I highly recommend the butterflied snapper with steamed veggies. Delicious! The veggie pasta plate was huge and the pasta cooked to perfection. The shrimp scampi pasta was sooo good. The linguini was perfectly al dente and the shrimp big and plump and yummy. Oh! And let's not forget the mile high key lime pie. Even if you don't care for key lime pie you will absolutely love this one. It's more like a key lime ice cream but better. Servers were fantastic despite the busyness of the place they never neglected to check on us. Great place. Highly recommend.

It can be pretty frustrating, especially if you're visiting for the first time and end up driving around in circles trying to find it. Once you arrive, though, it's worth the effort. The restaurant is located right on the water next to the boat ramp and has an enormous amount of parking. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating, along with a full bar area. The outdoor seating is especially nice since it's completely covered on the deck but with all of the bushes and plant surrounding the deck, you're not really getting much of a view. This visit, we opted to sit at the bar and were lucky enough to snag three seats together. Our bartender was awesome and did a fantastic job throughout the meal. They don't serve liquor here, only beer and wine, so I ordered a rosé. The bartender recommended a cute little $16 bottle that came in its own mini bucket. It was adorable and paired perfectly with my meal. For my entrée, I ordered the Ahi tuna with broccoli and a side salad. Everything was fresh and delicious. My husband, however, definitely won the meal competition with the shrimp stuffed with crab meat and mashed potatoes. I stole a bite, and wow--it was incredible. The flavor and texture were outstanding, and I'll absolutely be ordering that next time. One of the funniest parts of the visit was the bartender's T-shirt featuring Anthony Bourdain flipping you off on the back. They were selling them, and I couldn't resist buying one. I'm pretty excited to wear it. Overall, we always enjoy coming here. Great waterfront atmosphere, good food, friendly service, and plenty of parking make it a place we'll continue to visit.

We arrived right at sunset, and the view alone was worth the trip--golden skies, boats drifting by, and a relaxed coastal atmosphere that makes you want to stay awhile. The crab cakes were excellent--crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and full of flavor. The poppers were just as good, with a great crunch and bold taste. Everything came out fresh and well-prepared. Drinks were cold and refreshing, perfect for enjoying while watching the sunset over the water. What really adds to the experience is the live entertainment. On weekends, they have bands playing that bring that laid-back, Florida-chilled atmosphere to life without overwhelming the vibe. Service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing, which made the whole experience even better. This is more than just a place to eat--it's a full waterfront dining experience. Great food, great views, live music, and a true Florida feel.
